A Member of United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIP) stands guard next to the reported location of the launching of the four rockets at Israel, on the outskirts of the southern Lebanese port city of Tyre. It was the first such incident since November 2011, when an obscure al-Qaeda-linked group calling itself the Abdullah Azzam Brigades fired a volley of rockets from southern Lebanon at Israel, provoking a reaction from the Israeli army.Picture: Mahmoud Zayyat/AFP/Getty Images
